Introducing Oiselle Plus
Brand
Today you may have noticed the new section on Oiselle.com: Oiselle Plus! It's where we will introduce you to our favorite things. Brands and items tested and loved by the runners here at Oiselle HQ.
Shwings have been a hit around HQ for years and Oiselle Mac won't even race without her lucky silver Shwings. Lace them into your running shoes, racing flats or favorite pair of sneaks for instant wing-bling.
We added our favorite Smith Optics styles. Pivlock V90 and Parallel are explicitly for running and racing, while the Serpico are the perfect gal-about-town style. Because we know you're like us, easy sporty style is a must in the day-to-day.
And the Love to Run track necklace has been a favorite talisman of Oiselle runners. Sally and Linda Prefontaine met years ago at the Eugene Marathon expo. They hit it off immediately and have remained friends. We're honored to carry the Love to Run silver necklace inspired by Pre's love and dedication to the sport.
We hope you enjoy Oiselle Plus and be on the look out for additions as we grow this corner of Oiselle.com.
